What links conscious experience of pain, joy, color, and smell to bioelectrical activity in the brain? How can anything physical give rise to nonphysical, subjective, conscious states? Christof Koch has devoted much of his career to bridging the seemingly unbridgeable gap between the physics of the brain and phenomenal experience. This engaging book--part scientific overview, part memoir, part futurist speculation--describes Koch's search for an empirical explanation for consciousness. Koch recounts not only the birth of the modern science of consciousness but also the subterranean motivation for his quest--his instinctual (if "romantic") belief that life is meaningful. Koch describes his own groundbreaking work with Francis Crick in the 1990s and 2000s and the gradual emergence of consciousness (once considered a "fringy" subject) as a legitimate topic for scientific investigation. Present at this paradigm shift were Koch and a handful of colleagues, including Ned Block, David Chalmers, Stanislas Dehaene, Giulio Tononi, Wolf Singer, and others. Aiding and abetting it were new techniques to listen in on the activity of individual nerve cells, clinical studies, and brain-imaging technologies that allowed safe and noninvasive study of the human brain in action. Koch gives us stories from the front lines of modern research into the neurobiology of consciousness as well as his own reflections on a variety of topics, including the distinction between attention and awareness, the unconscious, how neurons respond to Homer Simpson, the physics and biology of free will, dogs, Der Ring des Nibelungen, sentient machines, the loss of his belief in a personal God, and sadness. All of them are signposts in the pursuit of his life's work--to uncover the roots of consciousness.
LCGS 11 Chap 1 & 3 & 4 & 8 除去前文一些romantic but awkward confession (雖然還是可以感受到一位年過半百曾叱吒風雲的前輩懇切的念叨) 後文的IIT倒是很值得一讀 雖然有點嘗試在physical property之外再界定一個mental property其實沒有解決大衛查爾莫斯的HARD problem隻是指齣dark matter和dark energy作為一種新的基本property的可能 Integrated Information Theory is in its infancy and could turn out to be wrong, but it will at least illuminate 還是緻敬瞭
評分深情的告白。 "Dave taught me an important lesson about philosophers..." 2333
評分大牛的孩子氣。
評分最近so有效率。。跟讀的上一本有點像帶點自傳性質,總結瞭前沿的學術成果和曆史上的學派觀點,底層的世界觀一緻,會自問自答一些我心裏的問題,然後提齣自己的猜想,挺喜歡這樣的風格。我果然還是一個堅定的虛無主義&唯物主義者。什麼時候我可以照一下藍光就睡著,照一下黃光醒過來就好瞭
評分要說之前還對歐陸哲學保持著敬畏的話(雖然並不懂),現在則是被改造成瞭一個reductionist。。。不然要懷疑人生瞭。。
